A ball falls freely from rest at a height of 2 meters. Observations indicate that the ball reaches the ground in .64 seconds.
• Based on this information what is its acceleration?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : 3.125m/s^2
• Is this consistent with an observation which concludes that a ball dropped from a height of 5 meters reaches the ground in 1.05 seconds?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : 4.76m/s^2
• Are these observations consistent with the accepted value of the acceleration of gravity, which is 9.8 m / s^2?
answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> : No, These are moving substantially slower than that.
